About
The Wyoming Valley Mushroom Club, an affiliate of the North American Mycological Association, exists to inform and educate individuals on all aspects of wild mushrooms:
The Wyoming Valley Mushroom Club was founded in 1991 by a group of wild mushroom enthusiasts interested in increasing their knowledge of wild mushrooms. Over the years, the size of the membership has increased, and also the territory that the club covers as increased as well, being both Luzerne and Lackawanna counties, the Poconos, and even some more distant locations.
When the club started, the main interests of members were mushroom identification, edibility, and culinary aspects. Currently, we address not only the original interests, but have expanded to all aspects of wild mushrooms such as cultivation, photography, bio diversity, medicinal uses, and many more topics.
